- Description
- Central Federal Lands Highway Division (CFL) in Lakewood, CO is a part of the Office of Federal Lands Highway (FLH) of the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), an agency within the U.S. Department of Transportation. The FLH provides planning, design, and construction engineering services for roads on lands administered by the Forest Service. The scope of this project is to collect roughness and Global Positioning System (GPS) data on paved roads in the Forest Highway (FH) Network. Roads and approximate mileage shown in parenthesis are located in the states of Arizona (179), California, (total 2,302, with 1242 north, 702 east, and 358 south), Colorado (242), Nebraska (16), Nevada (63), New Mexico (11), North Dakota (29), South Dakota (83), Utah (116), and Wyoming (54). Mileage on the network totals 3,100 miles. Beginning and ending termini and route lengths will be provided. Roughness data will be collected using a South Dakota Type inertial profile-measuring device, or other device as approved by the Contracting Officer, and built according to ASTM E950 standards. The profiler must collect the dynamic longitudinal profile of the pavement surface to calculate the pavement International Roughness Index (IRI) roughness index according to ASTM E1926-98. Quarter car simulation will be used to provide IRI data for both the left and right wheel paths. Calculated roughness indexes need be averaged and reported using the Central Federal Lands defined interval of a tenth of a mile. GPS must be collected at intervals no more than 5 seconds and must provide less than 5 meter accuracy after post-processing. The Request for Proposal for this project will be available at www.fbo.gov on April 18, 2008. Offers will be evaluated using the tradeoff process described in the Federal Acquisition Regulation under Subpart 15.101. The tradeoff process allows FHWA to consider award to other than the lowest priced offeror or other than the highest technically rated offeror. Factors for evaluation will be contained in the Request for Proposal. Estimated Price Range is $500,000 to $150,000.
